Grief is something we will all experience, but how we navigate it can make the difference between staying stuck in pain and moving forward with purpose. In Episode 5 of Elevated Conversations, Ayurvedic doctor, author, and speaker Sweta Vikram shares her personal journey of loss and healing — offering a compassionate, holistic roadmap for anyone facing grief.
Sweta’s conversation sheds light on what it means to truly sit with grief rather than rush through it. She opens up about losing multiple loved ones within a short time and how the weight of grief can feel unbearable when compounded.
Drawing from Ayurveda, she shares practical ways to restore balance:
Daily Routine (Dinacharya): Keeping consistent wake and sleep times, eating nourishing foods, and gentle movement to help ground the body.
Expression & Ritual: Journaling, storytelling, and honoring anniversaries to give grief a healthy outlet.
Body-Centered Practices: Breathing techniques and marma point massage to release emotional tension.
Community & Connection: Finding safe spaces — whether in therapy, grief groups, or trusted friendships — to share stories and feel witnessed.
What makes Sweta’s approach powerful is that it doesn’t aim to “fix” grief, but to create a space where grief can coexist with life. This message aligns with current mental health trends that emphasize holistic, sustainable self-care, community healing, and integrating wellness practices into daily life.
This episode is a timely reminder that grief isn’t linear and doesn’t come with a deadline. Instead of rushing to “get over it,” Sweta Vikram invites us to move with grief, to let it teach us, and to transform pain into deeper meaning.
